EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Via Roma in Naples" transports us back to the bustling streets of early 20th century Italy. Taken around 1900 by the talented photographer Brogi, this image captures a vibrant scene filled with urban life and architectural marvels. The photograph showcases Via Roma, one of Naples' most iconic streets. Its grandeur is evident in the beautifully designed buildings that line both sides of the road. The intricate details of these structures highlight the city's rich history and architectural prowess. As we delve deeper into the image, our attention is drawn to a business sign hanging above an entrance. This sign serves as a reminder of the thriving commercial activity that once took place along this lively street. It also hints at the diverse range of goods and services available to residents and visitors alike. Amidst all this urban energy, we notice various elements that contribute to civic spaces' charm – elegant furnishings adorning balconies and open windows, adding character to each building's facade. A tent-like structure catches our eye too; perhaps it was used for outdoor events or temporary gatherings. Transportation plays a significant role in this snapshot as well. A horse-drawn coach can be seen making its way down Via Roma—a common mode of transportation during that era—highlighting how people traveled from place to place on land. Brogi skillfully captures not only a street scene but also offers us a glimpse into daily life in Naples at that time. The view extends far beyond just architecture; it provides insight into society's dynamics within this vibrant Italian cityscape. Through Alinari's remarkable photo print, we are transported back in time—an invitation to explore Napoli's past through its stunning architecture, bustling streetscapes, and glimpses into everyday life over a century ago.
